What does Bujairami Kept Secrets smell like?
The opening is pepper and orange blossom. Pepper gives a dry, slightly warm sharpness, and orange blossom brings a bright, honeyed white-flower sweetness that keeps the pepper from dominating. It starts clean but not cold.
The heart is cedar, iris and powdery notes. Cedar supplies a dry, pencil-like wood, iris adds a soft, orris-like powder with a cool, slightly earthy character, and the powdery notes add a dusty, cosmetic softness.
The base is vanilla, tonka bean and musk. Vanilla and tonka share a sweet, almond-like warmth, and musk gives a soft, skin-like finish. Together the base is the warmest part of the list, and it carries the powder from the heart into the final stage of the list.
